Perched on a cliff above the Pacific Ocean, the town of Seabrook is one of Washington’s most popular year-round beach destinations.
Without a doubt, dogs and their owners love Seabrook. The pet-friendly oasis features shopping, restaurants and bars, a dog park, 18 parklets, a spa, hundreds of acres of mountain bike and hiking trails, a central amphitheater, sports and pickleball courts, an indoor pool, and miles and miles of wide-open beach. Community gathering spaces and firepits abound with plenty of room for families, friends, and dogs to enjoy.
Don’t forget to pack nutritious food for your pooch. Top Shelf Dog’s convenient proportions and packaging make it super easy! Use as an enticing food topper, a nutritious training treat, or a complete meal.
The Washington Coast has long been a must see for locals and visitors to Washington state, with forests, rivers, and beaches you can’t find anywhere else. A challenge for many has been finding a place to stay that’s close to the outdoor action but easily walkable to everything needed for a great vacation. Enter Seabrook, a vibrant beach town located just under three hours from Seattle. A sustainable haven for vacationers, day trippers, and full-time residents, Seabrook is the premiere place to experience all the coast has to offer for families and their four-legged friends.
Vacation homes of all sizes are available to rent in eight micro neighborhoods – from beachfront to the bustling town center, and the serene farm district. Homes vary in style and include options such as extended outdoor spaces, fenced yards, private hot tubs, EV charging stations, and outdoor showers. Pet-friendly home options offer everything your dogs will need for a comfortable stay including beds, leashes, toys, treats, and food dishes.
Dogs visiting Seabrook can play outside for hours, run for days, chase balls and driftwood, and romp in and out of the waves. Hiking is also a fan favorite. From the popular Gnome Trail that connects to the Elk Creek Promenade, across from the indoor pool, down to the beach, to the trails in the green belt between the Farm District and Lily Walk neighborhoods. For the more adventurous, several hikes are a short drive away.
Many of the small businesses in the town center are pet-friendly and one highlight is The Salty Dog, a one-stop shop for curated treats, toys, and more. Their self-serve dog wash may not be a dog’s favorite part of a trip to the beach, but guests love it. Shampoo, towels, hair dryer, plus an easy-to-use, elevated tub make cleaning up an easy feat. Prices range from $17-19 depending on the size and breed of the dog.
For visitors wanting to explore more of the coast, Seabrook is a perfect basecamp for extended active adventures. Olympic National Park, the famed Ruby Beach, Humptulips river, and Marymere Falls are easy day trips.
Throughout the year visitors can expect events and activities of all kinds, including winter storm watching, wellness weekends, SpringFest, an outdoor summer concert series, beach yoga sessions, mushroom foraging, clam digging, fall festivals, Halloweekend, and holiday celebrations. Seabrook is truly a dog’s playground, an unbelievably easy vacation the whole family will love.
